When God Speaks
"In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, and through whom He made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's glory, the exact representation of His being." (Hebrews 1:1-2)
Back in Genesis, before we even thought to speak to Him, He turned His Face toward us and spoke to us.
(Remember Adam and Eve, after they sinned, did it even occur to them to approach God and ask forgiveness? No, they hid and He sought them out!)
And then He continued to speak to us, through His prophets, and then through His Son, and now through His Word.
Yes, He spoke to us before we ever even thought to speak to Him.
If you have seen Me, you have seen the Father," Jesus told His disciples.
And from 1 John 4:19, "We love Him because He first loved us."
God's rescue plan to bring us back to Him always starts with God Himself.
And aren't you glad He didn't wait for us to begin the conversation?
